What is the most fucked up thing you ever saw?

Probably seeing my mother overdose. She’s had a history of drug abuse over the years dating back to when I was a kid, and with this instance she had been getting Xanax from a friend of her’s and went through a suspicious plug with much higher dosage than she could handle. She took a near whole bar of one and was acting really weird, foolishly having drank a lot of beer with it. She was acting drunk like she was ‘normally’ and before we knew it, she began dozing off and slumped over on the couch. Paramedics arrived and had to give her two shots of Narcan before she came to, throwing up everything she had eaten that day. Was eventually carried off in a stretcher and stayed over night at the hospital, and I had to comfort my (at the time) eight year old upstairs while nonstop retching and vomiting could be heard from downstairs.

It was one of the most fucked up nights of my entire life, and having to try and keep my sister mentally distracted by playing music to her really messed with me for a bit. This only happened last year but I can remember the sheer terror flowing through me when trying to figure out whether I really may have lost my mother that night. I have some trauma under my belt as is but that was a particularly rough one.
